Lib Tech Fully Functional Five ReCurve Skis 2013

Welcome to the world of good times all the time with the Lib Tech Fully Functional Five ReCurve Skis. That’s five fully functional dimensions for amazing control and maneuverability in powder and all conditions. This new shape combines rocker entry reCURVE Magne-Traction with a long entry pulled in nose that promises you won’t be levitated into the back seat when things get big, deep, and loose.

Bio-Plastic Beans - Lib Tech has made a commitment to using a new earth friendly, bio-plastic top skin made from beans that features the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any top sheet in the industry.

Base

Sintered UHMW - A super tough base material that holds wax well due to its compression formed amorphous polymer structure.

Edges

Magne-Traction™ - Adds edge hold and focuses the control and power under your feet where your balance is centered. Each bump or serration is strategically sized and positioned. The most aggressive bumps are in the center near and under your boot for maximum edge hold and control. The bumps are progressively less aggressive out towards the tips and tails creating catch-free user friendly tips and tails.

We recommend a brake width that is equal to the ski waist width and at most 15 mm wider.

Specs

Terrain:Powder

Powder

These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow.

Ability Level:Advanced-Expert

Advanced-Expert

Whether you charge the steepest lines, carve with race-like precision, hit the biggest jumps or halfpipes; advanced to expert level skis/snowboards are for the more aggressive rider. You will often find the addition of layers of metal, carbon, bamboo, or other stringers in these. These features work to make a stiffer ski/snowboard with more power and rebound.

Rocker Type:Rocker/Camber/Rocker

Rocker/Camber/Rocker

Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as will as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

Core/Laminates:Wood

Tail Type:Full Twin Tip

Full Twin Tip

Desinged to allow you to ski backwards, full twin tips are found primarily on park & pipe skis and freestyle powder skis. More and more, we are seeing twin tips on all-mountain skis of all abilities, as it makes it a little easier to get around, and for the most part does not inhibit forward skiing.

It's marketed as more of a powder all MTN NAS, but I've taken them a ton into the park and it destroys everything. Floats in the pow, crushes the crud, low swing rate for jumps and locks onto rails. The most amazing do everything NAS. IT'S A MUST BUY!!!!

Demo'd these at Baker last season, stoked on Lib Tech's. Hands down funnest most responsive ski ive ridden. Boosts confidence. Feels like your on GS skis on groomers and pow skis in the snow. Light and fast. Has less magna-traction than other models but works just as well, if not better. Great ski for variable terrain- Pacific Northwest, BC..ect. My wife also demo'd these and fell in love.
